I liked it, but I was hoping for more social history and less political bickering. There are lots of interesting facts (murals from public works projects, banks in post office, retail sales, the role of amazon) but I was hoping for more of the quirky (people put stamps on their children because it was cheaper than a train ticket) and less about the personalities of post masters general and Congress' ineptitude.
